FraZaa anonymous file sharing

What is FraZaa

FraZaa is an anonymous file sharing software that uses two other
anonymity networks for providing anonymity. The actual files are
transferred via
Freenet 0.5, a high-latency,
high-anonymity content distribution network. File searches and file
list sharing is done via
IIP, a low-latency but
still anonymous network primarily intended for chatting. So we
leverage benefits of both worlds — sharing file lists and
searching via IIP is quick, and Freenet (which itself cannot be
searched) is used for the file tranfers which are far too big for
sending them via IIP (which has low latency, but low throughput as
well).

What is the status of FraZaa

As of 2004-05-04, the IIP network is no longer active. There have
been several attempts to revive it, but as far as I know, all of them
have been abandoned shortly after.

Freenet is currently (2006) in a transition to the new,
backwards-incompatible, Freenet 0.7 protocol.

Since none of the software that is used by FraZaa is still actively
used, I guess there are no FraZaa users left anyway. There have been
no FraZaa file releases since 2003-04-03.
